Images
- How did you upload an image without clicking on the upload link?? And how does the licensing of the image affect whether you can upload or not? — Omegatron 22:32, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
- - Well.. I didn't.. I created new pages with new files by using the "Upload file" link in the toolbox. But many image pages have an "Upload new version of this file" link that allows you to directly update the file without any doubts. Fresheneesz 02:31, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
- Aha! I never saw that link before. Since my images are on Wikimedia Commons, you'd have to go to the Commons description page first, and then you will see that link. — Omegatron 03:58, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
Entropy/Disorder
Hello Fresheneesz. First let me say that I am absolutely in support of the WikiData idea (it is always good to question other's data processing methods, I've seen... some interesting data processing in my time on the MER mission. Anyways, I wanted to let you know that your edits to articles involving entropy seem rather misguided. It's really a very complex part of modern physics (and not always terribly easy for individuals to understand, even with a physics degree). I think for pages like that, the majority of editing affecting content (i.e. not typographical or structural) really should be performed by individuals with credentials in the subject (and familiarity). If you feel that there's something significant missing or incorrect on these articles, I would suggest using the talk pages, it is a much better approach IMHO because then if (as in this case) your ideas don't line up with accepted modern physics, someone there can explain why.

2nd law vandalism
I have to go now, so please watch over the page. Don't worry about the "3 reverts rule" - it only applies for non-vandalism. If that guy keeps adding that flawed paragraph, just hit revert. :) Infinity0 00:17, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
If worse comes to the worst, you can always find an admin to lock the page and ban that IP. I don't know any personally, but there's bound to be a list somewhere. Try Misplaced Pages:Administrators? Infinity0 00:20, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
- Misplaced Pages:Vandalism in progress is even better as a place to announce vandals. Yes, if vandalism is persistent, it definitely must be announced there. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 00:47, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
